Featured Book Review

America Again: Re-Becoming the Greatness We Never Weren't

Author: Colbert, Stephen
Genre: Humor

2012; 240 pages

Stephen Colbert is best known for his Comedy Central TV program, "The Colbert Report". He is a spoof news anchor who humorously reports current events. Much like his previous book, "I Am American and So Can You", this book reads like one giant Colbert Report. This is Stephen Colbert's best book yet. The book is separated into 10 chapters, each covering one major issue facing American today. From healthcare to energy, Colbert explains how to fix America using charts, graphs, pictures, and even 3D glasses! Prepare to fall out of your chair laughing!

APPEAL: This is a smart and hilarious view of American politics.
